Senate Investigations and the Fear of God
Christianity Today reported that:
Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley, head of the Senate Finance Committee, sent letters yesterday to six ministries—those led by Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Benny Hinn, Eddie Long, Joyce Meyer, and Randy and Paula White—demanding detailed accounts of spending practices. None of the ministries must file the IRS financial disclosure Form 990 because they are designated as churches.
I think if there is some kind of vendetta that someone is carrying against these six ministries, the fear of God in the literal sense is in order now. Agree or disagree with these people, Paul the apostle would praise God that they are preaching the gospel. If someone is paying someone back politically for something in all of this, the Bible shows that God has a way of making life very uncomfortable for the guilty party. Our posture in all of this, in my opinion, would be to pray for these brothers and sisters.
